I need help I have done everything on these forums to burn the game using DVD Decrypter iso read / iso write but evertime I try it with 2 different playstaion ( magic swap plus version 3.6 ) one with flip top ( older model no mod chip ) one with newer slimline ps2 it keeps saying not a valid ps2 disc ? what am I doing wrong ? also burned to DVD-R at slow speed
MXLRG01, MXLRG02 = Maxell = (-R) ... be aware of unbranded fakes
MCC = Mitsubishi Chemicals = (-R)<-----------------VERBATIM MY CHOICE #1
TDKG02 = TDK Corp = (-R) ... be aware of unbranded fakes
TAIYOYUDEN or YUDEN = Taiyo Yuden = (-R)<--------------FUJIFILM (made in japan) MY CHOICE #2
Start DVD Decrypter right click your rw drive.
First check for firmware updates.
After that is complete.
Put a quality blank media into your drive.
Goto mode iso write (using dvd decrypter).
IN THE BOX ON THE RIGHT YOU WILL SEE "SUPPORTED WRITE SPEEDS".
These are the speeds that you can Correctly burn (USING THE MEDIA THAT IS INSERTED.)
It will vary from one media maufacturer to another.
(Go with the SLOWEST SUPPORTED SPEED)

USE BETTER MEDIA. (heap media will not work with the ps2).
ALSO ITS NOT POLITE TO SPAM PEOPLES THREADS WITH YOUR~ PROBLEM.
Create a new post stating your problem and we will help you
Hi-jacking other peoples threads is rude and most likely your
message will be ignored.
PS2 games are actually pressed DVD/CD discs, they are not burned. PS2 games use the Burst Cutting Area (BCA) of the disc to identify themselves to the PS2 unit. The BCA is not part of a disc that you can burn on, it is only replicated on pressed discs.
So, the only way to play backups is to get boot-discs or a mod-chip.
***** BURN AT NO MORE THAN 2X****** <-----------(IMPORTANT)
TURN OFF ANY BACKGROUND APPLICATIONS
1. Take the ps2 game put it in the dvd rom or dvd burner, your choice.
2. open the dvd decryptor program then go to to tool bar and hit MODE>ISO>READ. Then choose the correct dvd drive that the game is in as the "source". Also choose where you want the files to be stored on the pc hdd. THEN CLICK DECRYPT , or the huge graphical picture at the bottom of the program which makes it run. The game is now copying to your HDD. Take the game out when finished (it might take a while).
3. Go to the same tab in dvd decryptor and choose MODE>ISO>WRITE. This will then let you look for the files you just created in step 2. Select the file that you just created. (There is only 2 files created so pick the .mds) (The smaller file)Then click WRITE, make sure there is blank DVD in the drive.
There are a few games that need to be re-built to work with swap magic.
I would try using a game that needs no re-building,
And try using the above method ON GOOD MEDIA.
If this doesnt work MAKE A NEW POST,
Post exaclty ewhat you tried. (What game, media, speed)
All the details, And someone will be glad to help you further.
